The Annual Gallup Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial
Since 1922, the people of Gallup, New Mexico have been proud to present the Gallup Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial each summer. A unique opportunity to immerse yourself in Native American arts, cultures, and traditions, “Ceremonial”, as it is known throughout the region, is a special time when indigenous peoples from throughout the United States, Canada, and
The Unbreakable Dark Knight Double Feature
I have the house all to myself for the next couple of days, and a rainy Sunday is the perfect time for a double-feature of the best “superhero” / “comic book” movies ever: Unbreakable and The Dark Knight. The former is highly underrated (and still holds up), the latter justifiably lauded; both are the best
Party Favors
Having some friends over for an early birthday party since I’ll be on Route 66 the actual day of, and the libations are ready to go. Lagunitas IPA and Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale to share, and the Arrogant Bastard Ale is for me, of course!
Worst car never – AMC Pacer (Don’t hate!)
Love it or hate it, just don’t call it “the worst.” Every time a “Worst Car Ever” list comes out, the AMC Pacer seems to find its way onto it. Built from 1975 to 1980, the AMC Pacer is the Worst Cars Ever list’s Commander-In-Grief. Its styling was, and still is, daring and different –

For instance, I think David Wright would do well with Valentine, but I think Jose Reyes would struggle. So, if the Mets intend to rely on the Gary Sheffields of the world,
A Personal Request: Help a Special Ed Teacher Out
“It is the glory and the burden of public schools that they cater to all of our children, whether delinquent or obedient, drug-damaged or clean, brilliant or handicapped, privileged or scarred.” – Benjamin R. Barber Three years ago, my wife (Salomé) was accepted into NYC’s Teaching Fellows Program, and left the corporate world to become
Done with Storytlr; Testing out Posterous
After a couple of weeks on Storytlr, I don’t love it. It’s much too inconvenient to use (posting via web is the only method that works well) and it doesn’t appear to have any active development going on. Also, its primary gimmick of combining sources to tell a “story” is rather limited, and isn’t terribly
